Susan's Path to Faith Presbyterian
Susan is a lifelong Presbyterian. As a youth, Susan served on the Youth Council of Atlanta Presbytery and was a Youth Advisory Delegate to the 1973 General Assembly in Fort Worth, TX. Before entering professional ministry, Susan was ordained as a Deacon and as a Ruling Elder and served in many different capacities in the local church and church councils, including serving as the Moderator of Cherokee Presbytery in 1987 and as a Ruling Elder Commissioner to the 1994 meeting of the General Assembly of the PCUSA.
After receiving her Master of Divinity from Columbia Theological Seminary, she was ordained as a Minister of Word and Sacrament on March 7, 2004. Prior to coming to Faith, Susan served as an Associate Pastor and Interim Pastor/Head of Staff at several churches in the Greater Atlanta area, including Pleasant Hill Presbyterian Church, Mount Vernon Presbyterian Church, Newnan Presbyterian Church, and Northminster Presbyterian Church.
Susan served on various committees while in the Presbytery of Greater Atlanta and presently serves Cherokee Presbytery as Treasurer, and as a member of the Permanent Judicial Commission and the Ministry Support Team. Susan was a Teaching Elder Commissioner (delegate) from the Presbytery of Greater Atlanta to the 220th (2012) General Assembly, PC(USA).
Susan came to Faith Presbyterian Church in 2020 as our Pastoral Associate, supporting the Congregational Care Planning Team and the Mission and Outreach Planning Team. Since October of 2021, she has faithfully led Faith as the Interim Pastor.
From Susan’s Statement of Faith, she states: “I believe that God is for us, never against us, that God loved us before we ever loved God, and that God’s love will endure always.”
